Preparing Students for success in a world of ubiquitous connectivityKathryn Schravemade
Helen Stower, Curriculum Leader – iCentre and Kathryn Schravemade,
Teacher / Librarian, Mount Alvernia College
The concept of Digital Citizenship continues to be increasingly important in the digital age,
particularly with the onset of BYOD 1:1 programs in schools across Australia. The ability of
students to learn using networked technologies and their preparation for success in a world
of ubiquitous connectivity requires a philosophy of digital participation. With the emergence
of mobile devices and social media, participation in online environments has increased
exponentially and an online identity is now a social norm. When developing an
understanding of learning in the digital age, it is important that students know about the
benefits of online participation. We believe a Digital Citizenship programme that makes
students cognisant of this fact and supports them to build a digital footprint that showcases
their learning, interests, talents and successes, will open rather than close doors to their
future. Digital technologies also facilitate the creation of online networks that enable
communication and collaboration and, in order for students to harness these possibilities;
the use of social media platforms to build learning networks is essential.
This presentation will discuss an interdisciplinary approach to Digital Citizenship that focuses
on the opportunities afforded by digital and social media, rather than one dominated by fear
of failure or aversion to risk.
Participants will leave this session with:
-relevant research to support a Digital Citizenship programme in their school setting,
-a sample Digital Citizenship programme mapped to relevant ACARA, and ISTE standards,
-an awareness of tools, applications and learning taxonomies that will assist them in the
development of a Digital Citizenship programme.

Retech: Digital Innovation and Integration in the ClassroomKathryn Schravemade
Presentation for @eduwebinar with @helenstower1
A key goal of future proof education is to ensure students are engaging with information, people and technologies as ‘connected learners’ and that this engagement is effective, safe and ethical.
In our particular school setting, it was identified that traditional ICT subjects focused on the development of software usage skills, which no longer supported the evolving needs of our students. Instead we needed students to develop skills in digital citizenship so that they could participate effectively in an online and networked world. Retech (Research and Technology) is a Middle Years learning experience that has developed in response to this need.
This presentation will explore some of the skills taught in Retech:
Cybersafety & building a positive digital footprint;
Information literacies such as smart searching, curation, effective note taking, licensing and attribution;
Using blogs and social media for building a PLN (Personal Learning Network);
Collaboration through shared bookmarks, notes & Google Groups;
Inquiry and problem solving; and
Creating and presenting with digital tools such as video productions, podcasts and infographics.
Moving from a Traditional Library to a Contemporary iCentre #slanza2015Kathryn Schravemade
Presentation for #slanza2015 with @helenstower1
The iCentre concept is to reimagine and move the traditional role of the school library
as a provider of information and literature to an iCentre which connects learners with
the skills, tools and information necessary for work and success in the 21st century.
Our journey from library to iCentre does not involve a brand new building, it involves
transformed culture, services and spaces. This is very much a story of trial and error
and we don’t claim that we have found a model that will work for every school and
every library - what we do hope is that we can share ideas and something we have
done or experienced will help you on your journey. The story of our journey from a
traditional library to an iCentre is not complete. In fact, we hope it never will be, as
the essence of our journey centres around continuous transformation.
